I seem to recall that 7.2 on NT has some bugs relating to shutting down (and possibly managing it's resources) if users are connected to the system when a shutdown is required. I can't precisely remember this but I think you ought to look to upgrading to Oracle 7.3. Every Oracle installation I know of uses either 7.1 or 7.3 - out of maybe 18-20 different installations at different companies across Europe, I don't know of anyone using 7.2. Maybe this is just a coincidence, but we ourselves skipped from 7.1 to 7.3. Perhaps you should talk to Oracle about your problems?
